The dry weather was nice but rain returns in full force for Monday with showers and storms becoming likely once again spreading west to east this morning into the afternoon. Rainfall totals will be heavier the further west you live, but everyone should get in on the action at some point today. Rainfall amounts will range from 1-2″ over North Central Georgia to 1/4-1/2″ further east.
Additional widespread storms are likely on Tuesday with a bit more organization along a weak front. Storms will move in from the northwest and push southeast through the area, and the stronger cells could produce some gusty winds.
Wednesday through Friday we will move gradually into a more traditional pop-up afternoon thunderstorm weather pattern with the heat kicking in. We’ve been fairly cool by Georgia standards to kick off this summer but our first true summer heat is likely by late week. Thursday and Friday will see highs soar to the mid/upper-80s everywhere but the mountains, and the humidity will make it feel even worse.
